About this deal
Zorua may be a combination of zorro (Spanish for fox) and rua (Irish for red, possibly referring to its red fur; madra rua is Irish for fox).
Zorua is a timid Pokémon. This disposition seems to be what led to the development of Zorua's ability to take on the forms of other creatures. Zorua appears to be based on the kitsune of Japanese folklore, a mythical fox capable of shape-shifting. The concept of a Zorua still having its tail while in human form may refer to how a kitsune has difficulty in hiding its tail when it takes on human form in some stories. Its facial markings may draw inspiration from Kabuki and Noh theater makeup. Zorua sometimes transforms into a person and goes into cities to search for food. When Zorua does this, it usually takes on the form of a child.If Miracle Eye is used by an opponent or this Pokémon is given a Ring Target, the effectiveness of Psychic-type moves is 1×.

To protect themselves from danger, they hide their true identities by transforming into people and Pokémon. This Pokémon has a cowardly disposition, so when it's not around friends, it basically always stays transformed as something else. In Hisui, Zorua has a dual-type Normal/ Ghost regional form. It evolves into Hisuian Zoroark starting at level 30. Pinsir Sea, Mimikyu Sea, Rowlet Sea, Buzzwole Sea, Mimikyu Sea Final, Rowlet Sea Final, Buzzwole Sea Final
